# Examples
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Test whether connecting to a remote Nix store via SSH works:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```console
|
||
|
|
# nix store ping --store ssh://mac1
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Test whether a URL is a valid binary cache:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```console
|
||
|
|
# nix store ping --store https://cache.nixos.org
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Test whether the Nix daemon is up and running:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```console
|

|
|
# nix store ping --store daemon
|
||
|
|
```

# Description
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This command tests whether a particular Nix store (specified by the
|
||
|
|
argument `--store` *url*) can be accessed. What this means is
|
||
|
|
dependent on the type of the store. For instance, for an SSH store it
|
||
|
|
means that Nix can connect to the specified machine.
